Which SATA Controller for SuSE Pro 9.3

warrenk · 07-27-2005, 04:13 PM

Hello group,

I am going to build myself a new Linux box with AMD-64. I'd like to use SuSE Professional 9.3. I'd also like the purchase a SATA controller (RAID-0 with two drives) to go with my new computer. But I have no idea which SATA controller to buy.

My main concern is ease of installation and configuration. I'm kinda a newbie and would LOVE to get a SATA controller that SuSE Linux will recognize and use immediately without having to go through much fuss. Is there such a SATA controller?

Thanks,
wk

You can check the SUSE hardware database ( http://cdb.suse.de/ ), and the LQ Hardware Compatability List ( http://www.linuxquestions.org/hcl/showcat.php?cat=303 ) . There are many suitable cards to choose from.
